Written by William Goldman, from he novel by Cornelius Ryan, A BRIDGE TOO FAR opens. Extended cameos from a galaxy of big-name stars (Dirk Bogarde, Sean Connery, MIchael Caine, Robert Redford, Gene Hackman) supply gravitas & box-office heft to Richard Attenborough's monumentally daunting recreation of the Allies' ill-fated, 1944 mission to capture 6 strategic bridges in German-occupied Holland.
